Hey guys ![]()
I have a quick question. Last year, around November, I was in college as a very very skinny 18 year old. I decided to make a change and started dedicating myself to working out, and I went out and got a plan, learned to cook, etc. In 8-10 weeks I grew around 25lbs, most of which muscle. The progress was just amazing. I would go out every week and get one pharmacy ticket from those huge technological scales that measure everything, and I was growing amazingly well, I'd easily win around 2 lbs/week almost every week.
Started getting complemented on shoulders and my triceps were already getting pretty defined to the point you could tell I lifted through my jacket.
However I dropped college in early January, went working with my father + started studying to re-do HS final exams, and stopped having all that freedom and money to buy any food at any time and I lost every schedule and stuff. Haven't lifted since, and needless to say I lost every gain by now. I'm not as skinny as I used to be because I gained a lot of weight. Now I can maintain my weight as average (should be around 130-135lbs as opposed to the old 115-120) without worrying too much about the food, and my shoulders still look wider than they were before, but everything else is gone.
I'm thinking about getting into weightlifting again this next week, after I finish my HS exams, 5 months after I stopped training. Question being, will I enjoy the "beginner progress" again where muscles grow amazingly fast? Or did I "waste" that already?
I feel this is a dumb question but thanks anyways
